Although the New York Islanders blew multiple leads last night against the Carolina Hurricanes and generally looked pretty bad and played like a bunch of assholes, they pulled out an overtime win thanks to stellar performances from Mathew Barzal, who had four points and the OT winner, and Semyon Varlamov, who made 39 saves. Noah Dobson recorded three assists and continued to look excellent, and Bo Horvat has been earning his contract. If you can believe it—I can’t—the Isles are 4-1-1 in their last six games and have points in seven of their last eight games.
